Actually, Islam is a bloodthirsty barracks religion, suitable only for depraved societies. It is fundamentally incapable of fostering democracy or protecting the rights of individuals. In short, it is thoroughly anti-Western, what was once politely referred to as Oriental. Tolerance for blood sports, the degradation of women and all the other evils that Islam celebrates are part and parcel of a culture based on a religion of hatred and violence.
islam (POA) is an intolerant cult founded by a Jewish and Christian hating, child molesting pedophile, who was also a murdering thief. The followers of the cult bow several times a day to worship a meteorite in the sand and follow teachings from a hate filled screed based on moon worship written by a maniac. The sword and death are used to induct new cult members and remove non-believers. Women of the cult are treated as sub-human slaves whose worth is measured by the pleasure they give men and by the children they produce for the cult. Beheading, stoning, clitoral cutting, limb chopping, and self-mutilation maintain discipline within the cult.
Yes indeed. To get rid of roaches, clean out the central nests.
Heres my thoughts. President clinton by bombing the Serbs, bombed the wrong people! He tried to defend Muslims, we all know how they thanked us. I think what the Serbs were doing, we now need to do. Cleanse the whole GD region. Thats right. Kill all and move all back to where they came from. Really, we are'nt dealing with human beings here folks. If I were a Russian father, I would go out tonight, and kill as many muslims as I could. I'm serious. Think of me what you will. F'em. I hate-em.
IslamIs descended from one of the earliest Christian heresies -- Arianism. This taught that Christ was NOT God and a lot of other rot. Mad Mo took this (the Arians had fled from the Catholic-Orthodox world and were living in and around Makkah), he also took stuff from the Jews living htere and from the Zoroastrians and from the Arab pagans (who worshiuppied Allh, the moon god and Allh's daughters.) and created his mis-mash cult
Amen to that. Terrorists know we are all unarmed.
This town and it's people (it's school children) are not actively (at least I don't believe) involved in the whole Russian - Chechyen thing? They were targeted by Islamo-nazis because they are Christian and not because they have persecuted or slaughtered Chechyens.... The mainstream media will not tell you this.
These Chechyens (or Islamo-nazis) are not "rebels" "militants" "insurgents" "freedom fighters" "breakaway separatists" fighting for a free Chechnya. That is total media crap. These are Islamist living in Russian land (like we have in Detroit or Los Angeles) who are fighting and terrorizing their surrounding countrymen. In reality, it's just like the Balkans with the Christian Serbs and the Islamic Croatians or Albanians? So, the same could happen in Detroit or LA or elsewhere where Islamics are in large numbers, who might try to become a separate country/state/entity?? right here n the U.S.A.
It has already happened in Belgium. It is going to happen in France and Germany and Spain for sure...the Islamics want to reclaim land they believe they lost in Spain when they were driven out.
So, bottom line, coming to a city near us? As Drudge says: "Developing..........................."
You're exactly right. The Romans did this way before they were an empire, as well. At the conclusion of the Punic Wars with Carthage in Northern Africa they completely levelled the city & sowed salt everywhere - while they were still a Republic.
Oh, brother. If I were you, I'd talk to the principal and school board members, and see if this teacher is in violation of any regs. This isn't a "religious freedom" issue - if a teacher came to work in an SS uniform, you can be sure he'd be stopped. This is no different.
Why are so many of these children only wearing underwear or in some cases nothing at all? Were these monsters molesting them? These pictures remind me of ones such as the little girl being rescued from the well in Texas, the little girls body being carried by the fireman after the Oklahoma City bombing and others that most Americans would recognize. I have only seen tame ones by the MSM. I guess it doesn't fit their agenda.
Who's defending anyone?
I've read and followed this story from the onset, here's what I've read, heard, and seen on the media:
They've called them "separatists"...they are.
They've called them "terrorists"...they are.
They've reported the presence of Arabs, and reported the connection to Al Qaeda.
They've accused them of murdering innocent people, and they've shown the graphic images.
I criticize the media when warranted, but I do not when it isn't warranted.
You people set up this bull$hit standard that unless your exact phrases are used, they're not reporting things properly, and since every one has a different concept of what they should say, the media is always wrong.
Well, the story has been fully reported by the media for once, and that's a fact.
Now, I'm in South Florida sitting here with a hurricane just off the coast, and this story was on the front page of every newspapaper down here.
This time, the media is doing a decent job of reporting an event.
Hey!
Just starting to feel the first serious weather; my in-laws just lost electricity, and so have some of my friends in Palm Beach County.
I have my batteries charged up on my laptop, and so far, my wireless Internet connection is running.
Now, all I can do is ride this thing out.
I don't expect Al Jazeera to report the truth; do you?
What Russian media is reporting is that Putin himself said that a number of them were Arab mercenaries and connected the Chechen terrorists to Al Qaeda.
I'd say that on this instance, the U.S. media is doing a fairly good job.
(Note: the word 'killed' was translating to 'killed', so I changed each instance to say 'killed' otherwise, text is unedited)

My heart goes out to the Families and the Soldiers.
Terrorism is a diabolical evil that must be destroyed.

Uh- it was being translated to 'killeden' so I changed it to 'killed'. Thanks
The kids took off their clothes because the gym was intensely hot, even with all the windows smashed. It's still warm over there, and the body heat from about 1000 people can get quite intense.
On top of it, the hostage takers denied water to the hostages, as a sicko negotiating tactic. Those poor kids were burning up.
BTT
They are humans, your hyperbole notwithstanding.
They are committing inhuman acts.
My soul is just fine, thanks for your concern.
I don't require hyperbole to arrive at the truth of things.
